The weather finally came crashing in on a Saturday at home as Woori Yallock took on Olinda-Ferny Creek.

The Unders started the day off well with a strong win and it’s nice to see the boys back on the winning list, 3.5, 27 to 3.2, 20.

Top Tigers were Hamish Murphy, Gabriel Conboy, Riley O’Connor, Elken Croydon, Jack Freedman and Lewis Player.

The Ressies game was played in tough conditions and the boys turned up and got the deal done, a great game of defence and aggressive attack and another week of improvement and momentum.

Final score Woori Yallock 9.6, 60 to Olinda-Ferny Creek 3.6, 24. Top Tigers were Matthew Cliff, Jude Hay, Tom Kear, Sam Carlton, Caleb Lee and Matthew Imbrogno.

In the Seniors game, it was similar to the Ressies game, with heavy slippery conditions and very much a game of ping pong between both half-back lines.

Olinda kept coming all day while Woori just had enough scoring chances to secure a win, 5.13, 43 to 5.7, 37.

In the Women’s footy, the girls played a super contested, high stoppage game but Warburton-Wesburn got two early goals and Woori wasn’t able to peg it back.

Final score Woori Yallock 0.5, 5 to Warburton-Wesburn 2.5, 17. Top Tigers were Anelise McCracken, Piper Crymble, Emelia Robin, Jessi Adams, Michelle Brown and Sky Wilson.

The netball was two great wins for the A and B teams while the C and D teams couldn’t quite come away with the goods.

A Grade: Woori Yallock 58 defeated Olinda-Ferny Creek 37. Top Tigers were Olivia Caneva, Gaby Clarke and Chelsea Smith.

B Grade: Woori Yallock 62 defeated Olinda-Ferny Creek 32. Top Tigers were Holly Dunlop, Danielle Gazzola and Jaymee Tough.

C Grade: Woori Yallock 26 defeated by Olinda-Ferny Creek 33. Top Tigers were Emmerson Alford, Grace Sibley and Jessica Ford.

D Grade: Woori Yallock 20 defeated by Olinda-Ferny Creek 24. Top Tigers were Georgia Sands, Cassidy McInnes and Alexandra Mcinnes.

17 and Under: Woori Yallock 23 defeated by Pakenham 35. Top Tigers were Georgia Sands, Monique Brown and Oliver Stenhouse.

Under 15s: Woori Yallock 22 defeated by Pakenham 23. Top Tigers were Ayla Spencer, Ruby Gregson and Mia Lingwood.

It’s great to see so many supporters turning up and cheering on the teams on the field and courts and the club hopes to see it again as Woori Yallock hosts Officer this week
